un"WORK"

Office wear has always been considered tantamount to grays and blacks and suits and blazers but it’s about time to unanimously break the custom and pep-up the workplace!

un"WORK"
You might be right at the top of the corporate ladder but do you really stand out?

Wearing a bespoke suit or carrying just the right case is not enough to say get-set-go. It’s time to go brash and bold with your office wear and shatter the dreary monochromes and pump out the brightness of the world into your workplace. Breaking the mundane and spicing up with either a dash of vibrant hues or playing around with handpicked exclusive accessories. After all who said office is solely and only for work?

A shout out to one and all who are in this delusion that office wear is indeed boring wear!

 
All set for the unending list of the day’s work wearing an indigo linen blazer over a quintessential white shirt paired with that garment which had, for a long time being denied from being considered a part of the business wear wardrobe - denim. This agile look is complete with navy blue knitted crochet tie, polka dot pocket square, black derby shoes and checkered socks.

To hell with files! I need some fuel to fire up! This dauntless lady looks smart in her black blazer over a blue tube top and denim. Her look is jazzed up with red shimmer belt and pump shoes and not to forget her big bold watch.

Who says you have to panic when piled up with work? Chat up with an ol’ friend instead. Wearing a white mandarin georgette shirt and gray pleated trouser, this impish lady spiced up her look with black and white brogues, blue satin waist tie and beaded neckpiece.


Do whatever you wanna do when your boss is not around! This dandy young man is all groovy from top to toe wearing a hot pink shirt and a navy blue pleated trouser accessorized with his white dobby tie carelessly tucked inside the shirt and brown derby shoes. But that doesn’t really mean he can’t attend a conference in that very same look!

This journey was extremely essential for each one of us. It was wild and exhilarating and it did take us through moments of adrenaline rush, but, the most crucial thing that it did was, it gave us a chance to step out of our mundane mess and be with each other for a while and realize how much we’d miss our bona fide selves which had almost gotten lost in our very demanding day-to-day life in the city.
